Changes with Apache 2.4.39

  *) core: new configuration option 'MergeSlashes on|off' that controls handling of
     multiple, consecutive slash ('/') characters in the path component of the request URL.

  *) mod_http2: when SSL renegotiation is inhibited and a 403 ErrorDocument is
     in play, the proper HTTP/2 stream reset did not trigger with H2_ERR_HTTP_1_1_REQUIRED.
     Fixed. [Michael Kaufmann] 

  *) mod_http2: new configuration directive: `H2Padding numbits` to control 
     padding of HTTP/2 payload frames. 'numbits' is a number from 0-8,
     controlling the range of padding bytes added to a frame. The actual number
     added is chosen randomly per frame. This applies to HEADERS, DATA and PUSH_PROMISE
     frames equally. The default continues to be 0, e.g. no padding. [Stefan Eissing] 
  
  *) mod_http2: ripping out all the h2_req_engine internal features now that mod_proxy_http2
     has no more need for it. Optional functions are still declared but no longer implemented.
     While previous mod_proxy_http2 will work with this, it is recommeneded to run the matching
     versions of both modules. [Stefan Eissing]
  
  *) mod_proxy_http2: changed mod_proxy_http2 implementation and fixed several bugs which
     resolve PR63170. The proxy module does now a single h2 request on the (reused)
     connection and returns. [Stefan Eissing]
  
  *) mod_http2/mod_proxy_http2: proxy_http2 checks correct master connection aborted status 
     to trigger immediate shutdown of backend connections. This is now always signalled
     by mod_http2 when the the session is being released. 
     proxy_http2 now only sends a PING frame to the backend when there is not already one
     in flight. [Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_proxy_http2: fixed an issue where a proxy_http2 handler entered an infinite 
     loop when encountering certain errors on the backend connection. 
     See <https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63170>. [Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_http2: Configuration directives H2Push and H2Upgrade can now be specified per 
     Location/Directory, e.g. disabling PUSH for a specific set of resources. [Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_http2: HEAD requests to some module such as mod_cgid caused the stream to
     terminate improperly and cause a HTTP/2 PROTOCOL_ERROR. 
     Fixes <https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/167>. [Michael Kaufmann]

  *) http: Fix possible empty response with mod_ratelimit for HEAD requests.
     PR 63192. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_cache_socache: Avoid reallocations and be safe with outgoing data
     lifetime. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) MPMs unix: bind the bucket number of each child to its slot number, for a
     more efficient per bucket maintenance. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_auth_digest: Fix a race condition. Authentication with valid
     credentials could be refused in case of concurrent accesses from
     different users.  PR 63124.  [Simon Kappel <simon.kappel axis.com>]

  *) mod_http2: enable re-use of slave connections again. Fixed slave connection
     keepalives counter. [Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_reqtimeout: Allow to configure (TLS-)handshake timeouts.
     PR 61310. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_proxy_wstunnel: Fix websocket proxy over UDS.
     PR 62932 <pavel dcmsys.com>

  *) mod_ssl: Don't unset FIPS mode on restart unless it's forced by
     configuration (SSLFIPS on) and not active by default in OpenSSL.
     PR 63136. [Yann Ylavic]
Changes with Apache 2.4.38

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2018-17199 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_session: mod_session_cookie does not respect expiry time allowing
     sessions to be reused.  [Hank Ibell]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2018-17189 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_http2: fixes a DoS attack vector. By sending slow request bodies
     to resources not consuming them, httpd cleanup code occupies a server
     thread unnecessarily. This was changed to an immediate stream reset
     which discards all stream state and incoming data.  [Stefan Eissing]

  *) SECURITY: CVE-2019-0190 (cve.mitre.org)
     mod_ssl: Fix infinite loop triggered by a client-initiated
     renegotiation in TLSv1.2 (or earlier) with OpenSSL 1.1.1 and
     later.  PR 63052.  [Joe Orton]

  *) mod_ssl: Clear retry flag before aborting client-initiated renegotiation.
     PR 63052 [Joe Orton]

  *) mod_negotiation: Treat LanguagePriority as case-insensitive to match
     AddLanguage behavior and HTTP specification. PR 39730 [Christophe Jaillet]
  
  *) mod_md: incorrect behaviour when synchronizing ongoing ACME challenges
     have been fixed. [Michael Kaufmann, Stefan Eissing]
  
  *) mod_setenvif: We can have expressions that become true if a regex pattern
     in the expression does NOT match. In this case val is NULL
     and we should just set the value for the environment variable 
     like in the pattern case. [Ruediger Pluem]
  *) mod_session: Always decode session attributes early. [Hank Ibell]

  *) core: Incorrect values for environment variables are substituted when
     multiple environment variables are specified in a directive. [Hank Ibell]

  *) mod_rewrite: Only create the global mutex used by "RewriteMap prg:" when
     this type of map is present in the configuration.  PR62311.  
     [Hank Ibell <hwibell gmail.com>]

  *) mod_dav: Fix invalid Location header when a resource is created by
     passing an absolute URI on the request line [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mod_session_cookie: avoid duplicate Set-Cookie header in the response.
     [Emmanuel Dreyfus <manu@netbsd.org>, Luca Toscano]

  *) mod_ssl: clear *SSL errors before loading certificates and checking
     afterwards. Otherwise errors are reported when other SSL using modules
     are in play. Fixes PR 62880. [Michael Kaufmann]

  *) mod_ssl: Fix the error code returned in an error path of
     'ssl_io_filter_handshake()'. This messes-up error handling performed
     in 'ssl_io_filter_error()' [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_ssl: Fix $HTTPS definition for "SSLEngine optional" case, and fix
     authz provider so "Require ssl" works correctly in HTTP/2.
     PR 61519, 62654.  [Joe Orton, Stefan Eissing]

  *) mod_proxy: If ProxyPassReverse is used for reverse mapping of relative
     redirects, subsequent ProxyPassReverse statements, whether they are
     relative or absolute, may fail.  PR 60408.  [Peter Haworth <pmh1wheel gmail.com>]
  
  *) mod_lua: Now marked as a stable module [https://s.apache.org/Xnh1]

Changes with Apache 2.4.37

  *) mod_ssl: Fix HTTP/2 failures when using OpenSSL 1.1.1. [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_ssl: Fix crash during SSL renegotiation with OptRenegotiate set,
     when client certificates are available from the original handshake
     but were originally not verified and should get verified now.
     This is a regression in 2.4.36 (unreleased). [Ruediger Pluem]

  *) mod_ssl: Correctly merge configurations that have client certificates set
     by SSLProxyMachineCertificate{File|Path}. [Ruediger Pluem]

Changes with Apache 2.4.36

  *) mod_brotli, mod_deflate: Restore the separate handling of 304 Not Modified
     responses. Regression introduced in 2.4.35.

  *) mod_proxy_scgi, mod_proxy_uwsgi: improve error handling when sending the
     body of the response. [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mpm_event: Stop issuing AH00484 "server reached MaxRequestWorkers..." when
     there are still idle threads available. When there are less idle threads than
     MinSpareThreads, issue new one-time message AH10159. Matches worker MPM.
     [Eric Covener]

  *) mod_http2: adding defensive code for stream EOS handling, in case the request handler
     missed to signal it the normal way (eos buckets). Addresses github issues 
     https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/164, https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/167
     and https://github.com/icing/mod_h2/issues/170. [Stefan Eissing]

  *) ab: Add client certificate support.  PR 55774.  [Graham Leggett]
  *) ab: Disable printing temp key for OpenSSL before
     version 1.0.2. SSL_get_server_tmp_key is not available
     there. [Rainer Jung]

  *) mod_ssl: Fix a regression that the configuration settings for verify mode
     and verify depth were taken from the frontend connection in case of
     connections by the proxy to the backend. PR 62769. [Ruediger Pluem]

  *) MPMs: Initialize all runtime/asynchronous objects on a dedicated pool and
     before signals handling to avoid lifetime issues on restart or shutdown.
     PR 62658. [Yann Ylavic]

  *) mod_ssl: Add support for OpenSSL 1.1.1 and TLSv1.3.  TLSv1.3 has
     behavioural changes compared to v1.2 and earlier; client and
     configuration changes should be expected.  SSLCipherSuite is
     enhanced for TLSv1.3 ciphers, but applies at vhost level only.
     [Stefan Eissing, Yann Ylavic, Ruediger Pluem, Joe Orton]
  *) mod_auth_basic: Be less tolerant when parsing the credencial. Only spaces
     should be accepted after the authorization scheme. \t are also tolerated.
     [Christophe Jaillet]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: Fix issues with interval determination. PR 62318
     [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: Fix issues with TCP health checks. PR 61499
     [Dominik Stillhard <dominik.stillhard united-security-providers.ch>]

  *) mod_proxy_hcheck: take balancer's SSLProxy* directives into account.
     [Jim Jagielski]

  *) mod_status, mod_echo: Fix the display of client addresses.
    They were truncated to 31 characters which is not enough for IPv6 addresses.
    This is done by deprecating the use of the 'client' field and using
    the new 'client64' field in worker_score.
